"Instead of protecting and preserving Cage's wealth during one of the greatest economic periods in the country's history, Levin placed Cage in numerous highly speculative and risky real estate investments, resulting in Cage suffering catastrophic losses," the lawsuit states, according to the news agency.

According to the lawsuit obtained by the AP, Cage trusted Levin's statements and advice and therefore was unaware of his financial trouble until after he hired new management. Levin was Cage's business manager from 2001 to 2008.
